Cover art for How Fast lyrics by Promise Of Redemption

How fast can you have your bags packed? I'm ready to blow this town

'Cause this feeling is getting too hard to explain And when it seems like months that you and I have been away from each other's arms, it's only been days And I, I count down seconds 'til these plane rides will save me From a feeling I feel that's certainly made me, oh, you know it's certainly made me Too upset to describe how when I close my eyes You're sitting right beside me on this bed here tonight You know I'd have to say to you

How fast can you have your bags packed? I'm ready to blow this town. If friendships are less important, I'm going to feel let down This one thing between road signs and street lights when I shut my eyes to the world outside It's just another thought of you and I

I'm so mad that I never got to say goodbye And all I can do is sit here and wonder why you were taken from my life And as I, I count down seconds 'til I see you again I got our memories in my head And I just can't seem to understand (somehow I understand) How when I looked into your eyes I could always realize that you and I could have been together for all time You know I'd have to say to you

So how fast can you have your bags packed? I'm ready to blow this town If friendships are less important, I'm going to feel let down 'Cause one thing between road signs and street lights when I shut my eyes to the world outside It's just another thought of you and I

Last night, I had this dream It was the most amazing thing There we were, standing side by side Just like the past twelve months And in a sea of wishful thinking (?) You know I pray to God I might spend forever in this moment and never have to wake up

How fast can you have your bags packed? I'm ready to blow this town If friendships are less important, I'm going to feel let down 'Cause one thing between road signs and street lights when I shut my eyes to the world outside It's just another thought of you and I (background: "To feel that touch again...")

So we'll blame it on learning It gets harder with time But even with distance Well, I know that true love will survive (x2)

I love this song, and I believe it was written right after Dana's death.
